I pre-ordered, but really only for the really cool watch and case. I forgot the game comes with it, although I like what I see so far. Fallout in space(ish).

Don't ever preorder anything. If people didn't buy broken unfinished games witgout seeing them, devs wouldn't release them like that.

I get it and totally agree. I haven't preordered anything since the first watch dogs. Even still, companies release broken games. I did it this time because I've always wanted a special edition of a game and I like watches. I think the game will eventually be good so it seemed like the perfect time for me to cross that off the list

Don't you only get the watch and case when you get the like, $300 version? The watch was super cool but I can't reason with myself to spend that kinda money on the game gear if I don't end up liking the game itself in the end. I do really love the watch, though...

Never actually pre-ordered anything, anyway.

Yeah, I've always wanted a special edition of a game and the watch was so cool. It's a lot of money, sure, but it's a dream I've had since I saw how cool the Halo 3 special edition looked. Everything kinda lined up for this one. The game might not be the best out the gate, but I'm sure it will improve in time. I've enjoyed every Bethesda game I've played so far and they have some of the best mods out there because of the great community around their games.

Honestly, more power to you then! I'm glad you got to do something you've always wanted -- I agree it's super cool and I think that physical collector items are the one exception for me if I was to pre-order something. I'll be forever jealous of your watch!

Thank you for the kind words! Let's see if anyone out in public ever notices haha!
